Indeed that works. But I'm as confused as Jerod here - I don't see
evidence of margins on anything here. The only element that's likely
to have a margin is the UL, and Jerod has expressly set that to zero.
And poking around with Firebug, I can't see what is overflowing.
So "Collapsing Margin Bug" does not seem to be an explanation.
Could you please elaborate?
Cordially,
David
